Hello!
You probably want to pass the -a switch to otp_build so that all applications get built, i.e. `./otp_build all -a`. The 'all' phrase that you have supplied refers to all stages of compilation (autoconf, configure, emulator and minimal apps). To get all applications as well you need -a.
If you type `./otp_build --help` you will get a description of what otp_build does and this is kind of explained in the first lines of the help message.

Subject: [erlang-questions] How to run Erlang without installing it
Hello,
I encountered a regression in erlang dev version and want to bisect it.
What I do:
$ git checkout otp; cd otp
$ ./build_otp all
<coffee>
$ bin/erl
Erlang R14B04 (erts-5.8.5) [source] [64-bit] [smp:2:2] [rq:2]
[async-threads:0] [kernel-poll:false]
Eshell V5.8.5 (abort with ^G)
1> application:start(mnesia).
{error,{"no such file or directory","mnesia.app"}}
What I expect to get:
1> application:start(mnesia).
ok
2> io:format("~p~n", [code:get_path()]).

I tried to set OTPROOT to `pwd`, ERL_LIBS to `pwd/lib`, but it did not
change the outcome.
